I was born on a small island in Denmark and grew up with a lot of fish but I have changed my way of eating toward a 95 % low fat vegan diet and that seem to have been beneficial for my knee pain that is nearly gone - but I love fish and would love to eat fish now and then with my vegetables and rye bread - and I will also add with omega3 supplements hoping that it will lover inflammatory markers as well and nourish the brain and keep it curious and optimistic rejoicing in life …🎶🍀🎵💚😄
Dr, Brooke Goldner has a short TH-cam video on “Omega 3 Fish “ I’d recommend . If you don’t mind using seeds or oil flaxseed and chia are the best & safest source of omega 3
Absolutely awesome interview this cleared up so many questions from misinformation from other doctors, Dr. Bill Harris is a Gold Mind of information!!!!!!! Loved
Great interview! Dr. Bill Harris is very humble and explains things well. I did the OmegaQuant testing via LE and was near optimal. I eat Wild fish (Sockeye salmon mostly), some mackarel, sardines and occasionally skipjack tuna and albacore. In addition, I take Krill Oil on occasion when I don't have a meal with fish or a minimal amount. I've been doing this for nearly a decade now (I'm 66). I feel this is one less thing for me to worry about when it comes to my health :)
Interesting. My parents and grandparents lived in the midwest on farms, ate oily fish once a year (salmon patties) maybe tuna casserole once a month and rarely ate freshwater fish, yet lived very healthy lives into their late 80's and mid-90's. Food was a lot less processed then and grain wasn't genetically enhanced. Maybe that's the key?
rarely ate fish while pregnant thank goodness both of my children healthy , well and smart if anyone was talking about this back then I would have often eaten fish
I take fish oil everyday. My hair and nails are incredibly healthy and strong…my hairdresser keeps asking me what I am eating because my hair is so hardy and fast growing
I question that everyone would want to live to be 100 or older, perhaps outliving your spouse or children, or your lifelong friends. Yes, I want to be as healthy & mobile as I can until I hopefully quickly die because I don't believe that most people are psychologically prepared to live so long with the inevitable pain & regrets of too many years.
This was sooo helpful & humane toward kids, adults, soldiers, etc. If yall could for even one minute out of 60 relieve the self-only focus of humans at this time & say "Gee, if nature's hardworking creatures, waters & plankton give us health, maybe we should think about THEIR health too, it would bring in bigger reality & free our weird, self obsessed anxieties about living forever on a dying planet. We could actually HELP earth revive, in our brief lives here. Why not plug ocean care, mention dead zones (Chesapeake Bay, Gulf, etc) from pesticide & fertilizer runoff & city street asphalt & lack of forest, the fact that we've depleted & collapsed entire fish species, dolphins, seals & whales are starving, even plankton are dying, & tunas are still over-hunted & depleted, people could take 15% of our health money & plant trees, restore soil, create rain gardens v lawn & asphalt, VOTE for water conservation, give to Jacques Cousteau society or Oceana, WWF, etc. That's just what the great doctor (God, who did not ask us to destroy Creation) ordered, maybe, not just the self-preservation that makes people stressed, blind, clobbered by toxins & fires & big oil leaders eroding democracies, water protections & climate action. Those grandchildren need a living planet. Thanks! 🌲🏕
good one. but i think algaeol should be mentioned more. there where studys if everyone is eating fish for omega 3 there is just not enough fish. then there is also the quality thing. fish can be also contaminated with bad metals.
question .... if i request my PCP to include omega 3 index in my blood workup and Labcore performs the analysis will it be plasma rather than RBC and not be conclusive indicator?
I have a problem. I'm a old male and recently I've been taking fish oil. Just one, sometimes two a day. However, I often wake up with bruises, usually on my arms . I assume this is bleeding under the skin. So I wonder, if I'm bleeding near my skin surface, am I also bleeding elsewhere? I certainly do not want any brain bleeding. I understand medical advice has changed about low dose aspirin, i.e, not recommended for elderly with no history of heart disease. I fit that. Given aspirin and fish oil are blood thinners, i think im going to stop the fish oil.
@charlenewilliams219 that's a half answer. If both cause bleeding, am I better off with neither of them? I didn't say it, but I'd love to hear from a medical professional.
I took fish oil, high-quality DHA and EPA three months, top end and I did not have bleeding or bruising. I took it to help my dry eyes. I knew that it was good to have the cellular membrane of all your cells working properly the way that they’re meant to by having the proper amount of omega-3 in your body. aspirin is an artificial component to your body. Don’t know the interaction of how it works pharmaceutically however, the natural way is the way to go. I believe the aspirin is probably causing the issues with your bleeding and bruising.
@@charlenewilliams219 I guess I didn't make myself clear. I haven't used aspirin for several years. I only mentioned it as a comparison to fish oil, i.e. if aspirin is no longer recommended for elderly because of bleeding, should I also avoid fish oil.
Can not believe they can talk about the evolutionary process based on Newtons theory,they then talk about the human body and ts complexities and what the human body needs and this all came from nothimg.we have everthink we need ,but this is what we do or have done itd all about self,there is no mention of God
Eat micro algae supplements to get optimal omega3 levels and oily fish 1000-2000 mg per day - I love freshly caught heering, sardines and salmon ( and frozen when fresh) 🎵🍀💚🎶
Simply take fish oil, in a gel capsule. Like he said, it's on shelves everywhere, or order from vitacost, etc. I take cod liver oil from a glass bottle, flavored orange, no fish taste, Nordic Naturals. Not sure if it's high omega 3 (cod liver) but my elders took it in these old Virginia mtns during the depression & onward, daily. Greens, liver, eggs, beans, cod oil, chicory coffee, spring water, sleep-- they knew some stuff.
@@lizafield9002 I take fish oil and gave for decades. Never tried cod liver oil. Eat all those things you listed. May have to increase my fish oil. I do not want to get dementia or any of those mental diseases.
@@gailmattingly9604 Gail, you won't get dementia. Meanwhile you'll help others not get it, including younger folks. There's good research in "The End of Alzheimers," but I've heard consistent basics of brain health include daylight & sun in eyes & on skin, sleep, wifi off when possible, discomfort (cold air time outdoors, sweating when possible, awkward foot terrain & alertness when walking), stretching/yoga/fascia limberness. It's hard to do everything, so just doing non comfort zone work & prayer for goodwill on Earth is my go-to. Bless you, good soul, you'll be fine!
vegan omega 3 (DPA, DHA & EPA) is made with farm-raised non-GMO algae, free of ocean-borne toxins, pollutants and contaminants and won’t give you “fishy burps". You get the essential fatty acids you need each day from the same place fish get theirs, algae.
Good question. I’m not worried about saturated fat, but was curious about whether I should eat the skin. It seems like if it has fat, it would be omega 3 fat.
He probably won’t say it, but Bill Harris’s company who started out in testing Omega levels, created a high potency fish oil supplement. It’s at their website Omegaquant. I was doing Nordic naturals and other decent brands and then figured go with the guy who basically created Omega 3 testing. Plus their supps ratios are formulated based on research findings.
@@michele.SalibaThat's my daily swig. From a glass brown bottle on fridge door rack, sustainable source. Sooo simple, but people complicate everything & then give up.
????What about algae? That's what fish eat and I'm vegan. Vegan doctors recommend eating that form. Also there are other vegan plant foods like flax and chia seeds that contain omega 3's.
Inland North American Aboriginals did not have access to oily fish only freshwater fish and grew taller, more muscular and more enterprenentrepreneurial (animal husbandry, planning, development of musical instruments and long distant weapons) than say the Aboriginals on the west coast who lived mainly on oily fish. They were a great deal shorter, bandy-legged, musical instruments were hollow-out logs, and killing was closeup and personal probably why they were cannibals instead of deer, and moose. So I wonder why the difference in these groups to what is being recommended.
Your guest said there was absolutely no downside to taking Omega 3 supplements (negative side effects). Wait a minute. If you do a search you’ll find lots of studies, including meta analyses, about the “significant” dangers of developing atrial fibrillation with omega 3 supplementation. One study found that patients who took one thousand milligrams or less of the supplement per day had a 12% increased risk of atrial fibrillation, and 49% increased risk if taking more than one thousand milligrams. Most experts recommend eating fish over taking supplements. How could you not address this in this interview?
Thought I'd just say that all the major studies say that vitamin D supplementation is a waste of time whereas clinicians who test and treat patients know from experience that vitamin D supplements are absolutely critical if you are black / Asian, old, fat, have little sunlight exposure to bare skin or use high factor sunscreen. The immune system depends upon it to clear up the body from invasive organisms to cancer cells. Guess who does the negative studies and benefits from illness and cancer..?
Thinking 🤔 same too. He said though you don't get omega 3 on vegan just when I was about to transition to vegan now I need to reconsider. I got so much out of my diet except for kefir I still like it. Now I need to go back to animal foods to get omega 3
I stopped eating a vegan diet as well. I eat fish 3x a week and mest 2x a week and 1 egg everyday with vegetables and rice. I eat fruit and goat kefir in the morning. A few nuts and evo. I'm feeling much better than before!!!
Bottom line what I am hearing contradicts the Proof with Simon Hill and Rich Roll and other Vegan champs. It appears you need to eat fish come rain sleek or snow. But I have also heard fish has mercury. The conversation are not helpful per se because it appears as though people who don't eat fish because of allergies are doomed for lack of omega 3. I will do my own homework

Did they eat nuts and seeds? Because walnuts and flaxseed also have omega 3 but the ALA kind that our body needs to convert in epa and dha
rarely ate fish while pregnant
thank goodness both of my children healthy , well and smart

Seaweed for Omega 3 is what i prefer.

I want to die before my closest loved ones, so I keep telling them to please look after themselves!
What about cod livers or cod liver oil for the omega 3’s?
My grandmother lived to 94 and smoked her whole life. But she loved fishing and ate fish regularly.
Yes but did she eat smoked fish???
Awesome video

My eye doctor is big on getting in Omega 3. His office carried the Omega Quant test kits.
As soon as I see "incredible" I just tune out.
Wild caught fish usually has more omega 3 fatty acids vs farm raised.
Well, better ratios compared to omega-6’s
Science backing up any data is ~always good but common sense, as expressed by Mr. Harris in this video, is just about as good.
good one. but i think algaeol should be mentioned more. there where studys if everyone is eating fish for omega 3 there is just not enough fish. then there is also the quality thing. fish can be also contaminated with bad metals.
Just ate a Sardine sandwich. Thanks 🙏🏻🏊♀️🏋🏻
Im intolerant of capsules and gels, which is purest form of fish oil?
I take Carlson's Very Finest Fish Oil. It tastes fine, not fishy. Rhonda Patrick used to use it, not sure what she takes these days.
Eat sardines.
Love them grilled on toast, topped with sliced onion, seasoned with salt and pepper plus a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil.
Too high in purines if canned may be better fresh ?
❤ Sardines

High omega 3 is linked to insomnia and prostate cancer.
